"Sure it does. Like, I could sell some of this stuff, and not have to worry about how I'm going to both hold down a job and be a superhero," Gear replied, nodding. "I won't be selling anything obvious, though, like my jet boots. Don't want people to find out about my secret identity, y'know?"
"No," Hotstreak replied, immediately. "But I wouldn't cause an explosion if you could get caught in it," he added, truthfully.
"Boy," Kain began, referring to Sora. "Quit daydreaming. You don't want to be caught off-guard by an ambush, now, would you?"
"An' I've got different requirements," Jack replied, but was going to leave it at that. "If you ever consider me, you'll find out about them then." His eye twitched. Was Minato making a move on his goddaughter? Right in front of him, and both of her parents?
Etna's eye twitched, but she was just high enough in the air that no one should have noticed. Was Minato making a move on the kid?

Minato smirked if he could get her to agree, and he acctually pulled off such a plan, he wouldnt have to worry about paying top notch mechanics and such to do his bidding "Well anyways, ill be back..... ummm nature calls?" he said shyly as he walked off to the nearest tree

Temari sniffed the air, making a slightly funny face out of disgust. "Does this happen to you all the time?" She asked him, coughing slightly.
Kirara blinked at him, looking at his jet boots before glancing at Backpack. She then moved her hand over and tapped it, her ears twitching slightly at the metallic sound it made. "Hm, would people really buy these machines? Like, what would they do with them?" She asked him as she moved away from Backpack, staring up at him curiously. "Would you sell them to nice people, or mean people?"
Hitomi listened to his words intently before she reached over and hugged him tightly. "Thank you Hotstreak. That means the world to me." She whispered to him softly, tears coming to her eyes but she blinked them away before they could fully form.

Inuyasha nodded "You will get used to it sooner or later, however the sudden and strong smells are always a problem" he sighed

Temari covered her nose with her sleeve, coughing once more, her ears drooping slightly. "Yeah, I can see what you mean Inuyasha." She replied softly, glancing up at him.

"I guess so. I'm not sure, it depends on the person, but I wouldn't sell anything like my jet boots or Backpack. No weapons. I don't want anyone getting hurt because of something I did," he replied. "And in my time, people don't really have much control over what kind of person buys a product. I mean, there are restrictions on some objects, like weapons obviously, but if you see something in a store, and you got enough cash, you can buy it, no matter who you are."
"Really?" Hotstreak asked, looking to Hitomi questioningly. "Just 'cause I said I'd try to not hurt you?"

"No weapons?" Kirara questioned as she looked up at Gear, a brow quirked lightly. "Hmm, you're world has some strange customs." She told him, her tails swaying back and forth lightly. "In feudal Japan, you're allowed to sell basically anything: clothing, food items, weapons, art and literature, women, anything really."
Hitomi looked up from his chest, grinning lightly before she reached up and kissed his jawline once more. "It's all I could ever ask of you, Hotstreak. And for you to say that you won't, I dunno, it just gets me all emotional. Sorry." She said as she continued to smile, wiping at her eyes with her sleeve, not wanting him to see her begin to cry.

"Actually, I meant I wouldn't sell any weapons, not that it wasn't allowed," Gear replied. "You can sell weapons, but some of them are hard to get, so that they can't fall into the hands of the wrong sort of people. But, no, you can't sell people where I'm from. Everyone's supposed to be equal, and you can't buy and sell an equal."
Was she... crying!? Just because he'd said he would try to not hurt her? And that's all she could ask of him!? "You sure got some low expectations..." Hotstreak replied, hoping to get a laugh out of Hitomi.

"What about prostitutes?" Kirara asked, remembering a conversation with one of the residents of Quasar the last time she was there. "They sell themselves for money, and doesn't their caretaker still split their earnings with them...?"
Just as he predicted, Hitomi giggled gently at his attempt to humor her. "Maybe, but hey, it's not like you got any higher ones..." She replied, "I mean like, come on, you're dating me for Chrissake."

"Also illegal," Gear replied. "Although it is still practiced..."
"Hey, don't talk about yourself like that," Hotstreak replied, sternly. "You're nice, hot, sweet, and absolutely adorable. Plus, you got cool powers, so you're strong, too. An' I won't let anyone talk crap about my girl, so what makes you think you get to?" he added, as more of a joke.

"Ah, true." Kirara said with a nod before deciding that the subject matter was a bit too racy, and therefore needed changing. "So, Gear-kun, if you won't sell your boots or Backpack, then what would you sell?" She asked him with a slight smirk.
Hitomi blinked up at Hotstreak curiously, loosening her grip on him before letting go altogether. She took a half-step back, but still allowed his arm to be wrapped around her shoulders. She felt flustered, of course, but she didn't know how to react to his words quite correctly to evoke a certain emotion. "Well um..." She began before she stopped, simply speechless. She really had no idea what to say back to him; nothing came to mind. But once one did, she moved out in front of him and wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him close for a passionate kiss. Once broken though, she grinned. "And trust me Hotstreak, your girl greatly appreciates it."

Sora looked at Kain. He shrugged. "I have been in plenty of ambushes" he replied. He did go over to a rock and sat on it. He swung his keyblade around a couple times. He swished around the keychains in his pocket he had gathered in his adventures.

"Simpler things, like maybe... Like a little robot to scoot around the house and keep things clean. That'd sell. Or maybe dumb down Backpack's energy system, sell a new form of energy... That would definitely sell, but then I might get targeted by the big oil companies..." Gear pondered.
At first, Hotstreak wasn't sure what to think. Hitomi had seemed so absolutely floored... It was like he'd grown another head, or something equally shocking, and just because he complimented her? Because he didn't want her to think so badly of herself? And then the kiss came, and for those few moments, Hotstreak really didn't think too much of anything. "Well... That's certainly one way to wake a guy up," he joked, with a huge grin.
"You'll be left behind if you stay there too long," Kain called back, continuing the walk towards the stronghold with the others.
((Goin' to the zoo with my brother and step dad tomorrow, so I'm going to bed, now. Good night.))

Kikyo also didn't seem too fond of the fact that Minato winked at her daughter. After all, Kikyo was right behind her, even if she was silent enough not to be. Once Minato was gone, she put a hand on Oomizu's shoulder and flatly stated "No." Oomizu blushed when he winked to her and looked off on the other direcion, shrugging lightly. "Yeah, alright. Just dont be surprised if I ask for a coutnry with neuclear arms. I won't put up with geting nothing but third world countries with weak governments and minimal technology." The whole nature calls thing got a wave in one of those shoo fashions. "Too much info, but thank you for feeling the need to keep me updated." She looked up to Jack, having seen the eye twich. "You alright, Uncle Jacky? Did you get something in your eye?" She looked up to Kikyo and pouted a little. "What'd I do this time? If it's the 'take-over-the-world' thing, then I was kidding... Kinda."

Sora knew he was right. He followed behind. His keyblade disappeared from his hand.
